We praise those people who do things for others. But the symbolic
power of giving means individuals can take advantage of the glow of
'goodness' that charity provides. Drawing on original data and a
novel application of the sociology of Bourdieu, this book examines
a wide range of examples from culture, politics and society to
provide an entertaining critique of how contemporary charity works.
